Rita Ballou |
|
Now she could dance that slow Uvalde shuffle to some cowboy hustle |
|
How she makes them trophy buckles shine,shine,shine |
|
Wild-eyed and Mexican silvered, trickin'dumb ol' cousin Willard |
|
Into thinkin' that he's got her this time |
|
Chorus: |
|
Hill country honky-tonkin' Rita Ballou |
|
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you |
|
Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou |
|
Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for you |
|
She's a rawhide rope and velvet mixture walkin' talkin' Texas texture |
|
High timin' barroom fixture kind of a girl |
|
She's the queen of cowboys look at ol' Willard grinnin' now, boys |
|
You'd a-thought there's less fools in this world |
|
Chorus: |
|
Hill country honky-tonkin' Rita Ballou |
|
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you |
|
Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou |
|
Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for you |
|
Good luck, Willard, and here's to ya |
|
Here's to Rita and I hope she'll do ya |
|
right all night |
|
Lord, I wish I was the fool in your shoes |
|
Chorus |
|
Hill country honky-tonkin' Rita Ballou |
|
Every beer joint in town has played the fool for you |
|
Backslidin' barrel ridin' Rita Ballou |
|
Ain't a cowboy in Texas would not ride a bull for you |
